The Life Of A Business Major, As Told By 'How I Met Your Mother'

Ahh the business major. The most ambitious, greedy, and serious of college students right? Well, not quite. We may appear to have our shit together and our lives figured out, but trust me when I say that most of us don't. We wouldn't change our major for the world (most days) but it can be a grind. So who else is there to better explain what the life of a business major is really like than the dysfunctional gaggle of friends that make up the cast of "How I Met Your Mother."


Accounting.

Walking into your first ever networking event.

Actually in your first ever networking event.

When someone says that being a business major is easy.

In the science class you have to take in order to graduate.

Seeing people on campus dressed in business professional attire.

The two kinds of reactions when a group project gets assigned. There's no in between.

or

When Patrice screws up your group project.

That one kid who somehow aces the finance exam even after he went out the night before.

Starting your last exam of finals week.

When you have a job lined up before senior year starts but none of your friends do.

When your friends mention how long your hours are going to be in said job.

On graduation day when you think you are free from the world of networking and group projects.

When you realize that group projects and networking will be the basis of your entire career.


Good luck my friends. We're all in this together.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
